Strong verbal and written communication skills, a self-driven mindset, and the ability to deliver high-quality results in a fast-paced environment are essential for success in this role.
Key job responsibilities:
- You will be responsible for defining key research directions, adopting or inventing new machine learning techniques, conducting rigorous experiments, publishing results, and ensuring that research is translated into practice.
- You will develop long-term strategies, persuade teams to adopt those strategies, propose goals and deliver on them.
- You will also participate in organizational planning, hiring, mentorship, and leadership development.
- You have a passion for building scalable science and engineering solutions.
- You will serve as a key scientific resource in full-cycle development (conception, design, implementation, testing to documentation, delivery, and maintenance).
Minimum Qualifications:
- 10+ years minimum of hands-on science application experience
- PhD in a relevant technical field (or equivalent experience in some cases)
- Strong publication track record
- Experience programming in Java, C++, Python or related language
